reliable split/dividend api

Hi, does anyone know any reliable API for US stock split and dividend?

The requirements are:
1. it should contains split/dividend history of past 10 years
2. new split/dividend events should be available at least a hour before market open on the same day
3. reliable enough for production use

Thanks!
 
reqMktData(id, contract, '456', False, False, []) returns dividend information. TickType in response is 59.
I do daily queries and merge with yesterday's results. You also have to make sure you properly parse the responses as there's an error on IB's side. The field separator is a comma, as well as the separator for thousands. I contacted them on this but this was said to be a feature, uhm, yeah.
 
For splits, I just parse the Nasdaq website with Selenium but it's not an API, so does not work for you.

Polygon.io provides this data through our Splits and Dividends endpoints.

We'll actually be releasing the next iterations of these endpoints over the next few weeks, which will provide many improvements to what we currently make available.
 
@Polygon.io : Quick question. I know you already have stocks, options, forex and crypto data. Do you have any plans for Futures data as well? If yes, any idea about the timeframe?
Last I checked on Options, it was in beta. Is it fully available yet?
